Books I Recommend

While I love stashing store bought bars in my bag for when I’m out and about, it can get a little pricey.

That’s why, from time to time, I like to make a big batch of homemade bars. I will wrap each bar in plastic wrap and freeze most of them until I need them.

Cost effective and tasty. Especially when I make them chocolate.

I especially love this bar because it’s higher in fibre and yo, it just tastes scrummy.

Chocolate Grab and Go Bars

6 TB hemp seeds

1/2 cup sesame seeds

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

6 dates

1/2 cup almond butter

4 TB cocoa

1/2 cup quick oats

1/2 coconut, unsweetened

1/4 cup chocolate chips

1/5 cup flax seeds, ground

1/4 cup walnuts

1/2 cup water

Mix all the ingredients (except chocolate chips) together in a food processor. If you need more liquid to mix it into a dough, add some water. Mix in chocolate chips. Fill a glass pan evenly with the batter and slice into bars. Makes about 15-16 bars. Note: You could even add some protein powder in there if you like.

Each bar is about 4 grams of fibre, 5 grams of protein and about 180 calories.

I love making homemade bars… it’s so simple and they end up so much tastier than store bought ones! These look absolutely delicious, like “get in my mouth right now” delicious, or “I have to make a batch of these asap” delicious. :)
